A formal entry foyer welcomes you into the home and opens to a generously proportioned living/dining room, where beamed ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, and classic prewar details create an inviting sense of warmth and character. Southern exposure fills the main living space with natural light, while additional northern and western exposures bring light into the home throughout the day. The windowed kitchen was thoughtfully renovated and reconfigured to maximize the space, with custom cabinetry designed specifically for the room, stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, a new refrigerator, stylish backsplash, and open shelving. The two well-proportioned bedrooms offer exceptional flexibility. The current owners have thoughtfully configured the larger bedroom for their three children, while using the second bedroom as a comfortable primary retreat. The windowed bathroom adds to the home’s airy feel, while abundant closets provide valuable storage throughout. Built in 1938 and designed by renowned architect Emery Roth, Manchester House retains its handsome original facade and elegant prewar lobby. The well-maintained cooperative offers a live-in Resident Manager, doorperson service from 8:30am to 11:30pm, basement laundry, bike storage, and additional storage. The building is pet-friendly and permits pieds-à-terre, guarantors, and gifting. Ideally situated on West 79th Street between Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues, the home is surrounded by the best of the Upper West Side. The beautifully landscaped block has a wonderfully residential feel, while Central Park, Riverside Park, the American Museum of Natural History, the Museum Greenmarket, neighborhood cafés, restaurants, shops, and excellent transportation are all just moments away. The 1, 2, A, B, and C subway lines provide convenient access throughout Manhattan. A rare opportunity to enjoy classic Upper West Side living in a bright, gracious and versatile prewar home. ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Co-op - **Beds**: 2 - **Baths**: 1 - **Rooms**: 4 - **Stories**: 16 - **Year Built**: 1928 - **Common Charges**: $2,436.5 / Monthly - **Listed On**: Sep 9, 2026 - **Days on Market**: 1 Days ### Residence Features - Wall Unit(s) - Building Washer Dryer Install Allowed - Common On Floor - Common Area - Entrance Foyer - Stainless Steel Appliance(s) - Hardwood ## Sales Evidence ### Recent closed sales 10 apartments at Manchester House have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $1,185,000 in October 2024.

Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares The median closed price for comparable two-bedroom sales at Manchester House is $1,287,500, based on 4 sales between October 2021 and September 2023. This home is asking $1,495,000, $207,500 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $1,128,125 and $1,406,250. - **Median closed price**: $1,287,500 - **Middle half**: $1,128,125 – $1,406,250 - **Based on**: 4 two-bedroom sales at Manchester House - **Period**: October 2021 – September 2023 Square footage is recorded for only 0 of these 4 sales (0%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group. Co-op sales rarely carry a floor area, and a figure drawn from a handful of them would not describe the rest. Across the 4 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 95.8% of what it originally asked. 100% of them closed below the original ask. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sold vs original ask**: 95.8% of the original ask - **Closed below ask**: 100% of 4 sales - **Listed → in contract**: 47 days (about 7 weeks) - **In contract → closed**: 86 days (about 12 weeks) Across the 4 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 95.8% of what it originally asked. 100% of them closed below the original ask. Half of these homes were in contract within 47 days (about 7 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 3 with a recorded listing date. Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 86 days (about 12 weeks), based on the 3 with both dates recorded. A co-op board package and its interview account for much of that. These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure. Based on 4 two-bedroom sales at Manchester House, October 2021 – September 2023. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ. ### Price trend Median sold price for co-op two-bedroom sales in Upper West Side, 2016 to 2026. The series is held to one bedroom count and one ownership type for the same reason: an unfiltered median tracks which apartments sold, not what they were worth. | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2016 | $1,400,000 | 21 | | 2017 | $1,525,000 | 134 | | 2018 | $1,475,000 | 144 | | 2019 | $1,472,500 | 144 | | 2020 | $1,351,200 | 78 | | 2021 | $1,350,000 | 222 | | 2022 | $1,500,000 | 195 | | 2023 | $1,395,000 | 142 | | 2024 | $1,446,500 | 144 | | 2025 | $1,390,000 | 151 | | 2026 | $1,420,000 | 79 | This building does not have enough sales with a recorded floor area to chart its own price per square foot, which is usual for a co-op. The series above follows comparable homes across Upper West Side instead. Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.
